He sent me off to school in the morning and 'made his way to work'. He was all dressed nicely for work, with nice shoes and a top that matched my little birthday outfit. And guess what? He did not go to work at all! Instead, he went all around Melbourne looking for a nice necklace for me. He stood outside Meet me at Mikes for a good 2 hours because he knew they stocked one of my favourite necklaces. But I think the shop only opens at noon or something so he gave up and went to to all the other crafty shops I love. In the end, he bought me a sweet sterling silver necklace from Corky. It has a little bird in a cage and it makes the nicest 'clinking' sound when I wear it. I love it to bits!
Then, like as if he hasn't done enough, he bought me this huge bouquet and went home to make me a tiramisu birthday cake! He deserves such a big pat on the back!
We went ice skating today at the new Ice House and it was lots of fun. I think it was so fun because I can't skate or blade at all. So for two whole hours, the side barrier was sort of my best friend. Haha. I was such a chicken! ![Trying not to fall while laughing](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_th98yhVEDuKRNZh6gNbGfUYXEosF3kNu17cHNVF9j-6Mye41IzP5zmdxb8zhXwD3zThfNy4xfBIBuscvxD3MUFAL2JrvpYhZHo89ZnIO-bYyOHP4n_XZNDCCbQUW0hJD2Idw=s0-d)

Back to work tomorrow and lots of good food to paint! Since I've declared a 'birthday holiday' and stopped painting for two days straight! Haha. Wish me luck!
